Do Plan Insurance cover Electric Taxis?

Our main insurer partner is very happy to offer cover for the TX-e without a significant change to their premium rating. If you currently drive an older model TX, they’ll simply require a small increase due to the higher vehicle value. If you already drive a newer model TX or Vito, you shouldn’t notice too much of a difference (we anticipate it will be approximately 5-10%).

Some insurers are wary of offering cover for electric vehicles. This is often due to the greater potential for large claims resulting from unforeseen issues with the new technology. There is also a risk of higher repair bills due to parts being more expensive, or delays in the supply of them. However, we’re pleased to report that our main insurer partner is not put off by these considerations, and wants to support the taxi drivers who choose to transition to electric.

Do Plan Insurance cover LPG Taxis?

We can offer our taxi insurance customers a guaranteed vehicle value on converted vehicles. This means that if the cab is a
write-off, we will pay for its value including the cost of the conversion, so you won’t be out of pocket.

When you contact us for a quote, simply tell us how much the conversion cost is (this should be in the region of £11,000 to
£13,000 (inc. VAT), depending on your vehicle model), in addition to your vehicle’s value.

The depreciating value of the conversion will be accounted for at renewal each year over a 5-year period. Other than that, all
you’ll need to do if you take out cover, is supply us with an official certificate of fitment.

If you hesitate between Electric and LPG, we have recently published a cost comparison between the two: Taxi dilemma
